I've given Moviepass about $120 and saw almost $700 worth of movies. I finally cancelled due to the latest bullshit (only two movies available per day) and switched to AMC A-List.

Moviepass was glorious while it lasted, but I knew its days were numbered. Hilarious watching them change their tactics every few days to slow the bleeding.

See, this kind of stuff is weird to me. I think some of their restrictions are a bit too much now, like new, popular movies being blocked from being used, but stuff like not being able to watch more than one movie a day or the same movie more than once seems totally reasonable to me.

Like, you're getting a fucking steal already. Just because they say "Well, we're struggling now and we'd like to try and make it so people aren't taking total advantage of our product for our ridiculous low price" shouldn't mean they should get dumped on for such a thing. Why should you be allowed to watch more than one movie a day for the price of $10 overall? Why should you have to be allowed to see the same movie over and over again for $10? Why be so entitled to this subscription service where you admitted to having saved hundreds of dollars you otherwise would have spent watching movies?

And the absolute naivity by people to think for a second that once Movie Pass dies that AMC A-List won't be making a ton of restrictions on it is crazy. The only reason AMC A-List is exists is to kill Movie Pass.

Sorry, I think I was being a little unclear for the reason I cancelled. What made Moviepass useless to me is that now when I open up the app, it will literally only show me showings for Slender Man and The Spy Who Dumped Me -- literally no other movies show up now. I absolutely have no issues with only being able to see one movie a day or being limited to seeing each movie exactly once.

Since Moviepass is literally useless right now, AMC A-List is the only thing that comes close to what Moviepass was doing for me months ago. I have no well-founded opinion on the sustainability of A-List as it current stands. But just as my plan was to use Moviepass for as long as it's useful to me, I will do the same with A-List.
